Ingredients
- 1 cup organic, gluten-free old fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup fine almond flour
- 3/4 cup sliced almonds
- 3/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/4 cup TDW Vanilla Protein Powder
- 2 tsp chia seeds
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/4 tsp TDW Mineral Salt
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup pure organic maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silicone nonstick mat or parchment paper.
- Place all of the ingredients except the maple syrup into a large mixing bowl and stir with a rubber spatula. Fold in the maple syrup with the spatula until everything is well combined.
- Pour the mixture onto the baking sheet. Using the spatula, spread around the granola. It doesn't need to be pressed together. Air pockets make for a crunchier granola!
- Bake in the 325-degree oven for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, carefully stir and turn the granola around. Bake for another 10 minutes.
- Remove the granola from the oven and let sit for about 30 minutes. This step cools and crisps your granola right up!
- Store in an airtight container for 2 weeks. Enjoy!!
